Our natural soy and coconut apricot wax candles are poured in small batches to ensure maximum scent throw and clean performance. Follow this guide to enjoy the best burn possible.
On your first burn, allow the candle to light for **2 to 3 hours** (or until the liquid wax pool has completely reached all edges of the glass jar). This sets the wax "memory" and prevents tunneling.
Before lighting your candle each time, trim the cotton wick to exactly **1/4 inch** (6mm). This prevents soot build-up, ensures a balanced flame size, and eliminates popping or smoking.
Never burn your candle for more than **4 hours** in a single session. This prevents the glass jar from overheating. Extinguish, let the jar cool completely, trim the wick, and relight if desired.
Keep burning candles away from open windows, fans, ceiling vents, and heavy drafts. Air currents can cause the candle to burn unevenly, reducing the overall burn hours and throwing soot.
Use only approved tea-light or electric wax warmers. Never add water to your melts. To clean spent wax, place 2–3 cotton balls in the warm dish to absorb the liquid, wipe clean, and place a fresh cube.
Stop burning when 1/2 inch of wax remains. Pour hot water inside the jar to float the remaining wax, pull out the metal wick tab, and wash with warm soap and water. Our matte black jars make perfect storage pots.
